As a followup to yesterday's 6 month update:

I just got my bi-annual emissions check-up. Very much painless compared to last time.

Here in Albuquerque, the following standards apply: Hydrocarbons: 220 ppm CO: 1.2%

Two years ago, I failed with the Wasserboxer on the first and second try - the Dealer finally was able to pass the car with the following readings:

HC: Idle=217ppm; At speed=85ppm CO: Idle=.06%; At speed=.53%

I uderstand that it took a "severe" warm-up and a few tweaks to make this.

Today with the Eurospec:

HC: Idle=12ppm; At speed=45ppm CO: Idle=.01%; At speed=.05%

I'm happy!
